I don't think that's it. It's in an airconditioned room and when I cycle the power it comes back until the next time.
It still points to over heating. The ambient air temperature doesn't make a whole load of difference - it's the temperature of the few millimetres of air which surround the CPU which you need to worry about. As soon as you cut the power, the thermal cut out resets, the chip surface temperature drops a couple of degrees and the device is happy again.
Also the machine was sitting running red hat 6.1 for several trouble free weeks before I overwrote it with Scuse 6.4
The temperature of the chip is directly related to what it's doing. Perhaps a SuSE cron job comes in (which Redhat does differently) which causes the chip to work a bit harder, which, along with other things that are going on, causes the thing to overheat. I could be completely wrong here though. :-) -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/support/faq
